‘Tis the season for Christmas trees, holiday decorations and the spirit of giving!
Here at the Xait offices in Norway, the snow is starting to fall, and Christmas carols are in the air. And our Xait team took a break from waxing our skis and polishing our skates so we could share with you our Top 12 Tips to help you efficiently create, edit, produce and publish high-quality documents for your business-critical projects.
In the spirit of the season, we are following the theme of the “12 Days of Christmas”, sharing a helpful tip for each working day as we count down to Christmas.
So whether you are working on a winning proposal, creating a top-quality annual report, preparing a license application or planning a project, read on to discover useful hints and smart tips to help you and your team improve efficiency, save time and produce great documents.
The First Day: A New Business-Critical Project
“On the first day of Christmas my true love gave to me a new business-critical project in XaitPorter”
So, what is a project in XaitPorter? Well a project can be many things but first and foremost, a project is the foundation of XaitPorter. This is where you will create and edit documents, control access rights and share information with your team - a project is the place in XaitPorter where you live and communicate. And why is this our gift to you on the first day of Christmas? Business-critical projects - like a proposal for an important client, a bid response for a multi-$$ project or your company's annual report - are the lifeblood of your company. Your team spends hours of time, energy and effort on creating, editing and producing important documents, and XaitPorter helps you manage your projects as efficiently and securely as you would your most valuable assets - which indeed is what they are.
A project in XaitPorter can be a collection of documents such as proposals, financial reports or even ship design documents. Or you can also use a project to create a single document with many sections and subsections, each with their own writer, reviewer and approver. The project is the command center for your creative endeavors while the Dashboard is the command center for your administrative and reporting functions (hint: stay tuned for more dashboard talk in the next blog).
Happy holidays, and we hope you enjoyed your first day. And a business-critical project is better than a partridge in a pear tree anyway.
